President Donald Trump has turned what could have been a rare moment to celebrate the country’s 250th anniversary into another display of his own ego, former Obama speechwriter Jon Lovett said.
Speaking on The Daily Beast Podcast with host Joanna Coles, Lovett, host of Pod Save America, explained that Congress had created the nonpartisan America 250 to celebrate the occasion, but Trump hijacked it by creating “his own competing group called Freedom 250″ which “politicizes America’s Independence Day.”
